056 Sister take care and brother go
In the early hours of spring, the weather was still very cold, and the grass on the roadside was covered with dewdrops.
At this time, Chang Gengxing had just disappeared, and the east side was white, and the big rooster in the town was crying desperately, and the loud crowing spread far away.
There were two figures standing at the mouth of the alley, standing still at this time, staring at the gate of a courtyard in the middle of the alley.
"Are you sure you want to go now?"
"Hmm!"
"Actually, you can recuperate for a few more days, I'm not in a hurry."
"No need, my sister has been busy these days, and now she is leaving quietly, and she is relieved of her reluctance."
"Your brother and sister are really alike, and their personalities are so strong, for example, when I said I wanted to take you away, you didn't want to, but you didn't ask me where I was going to take you or what to do."
"If we asked, would you say?"
"No!"
"So what else is there to ask? You saved my life, you took me wherever I went, and I did what I did, but I hope you will keep your promise, and when the time comes, I will leave. ”
"That's the case, let's go!" After the man finished speaking, he took the lead in leaving the alley.
The people behind followed, and the two quickly disappeared into the hazy morning light.
…………
When Jiang Yi woke up, it was already dark, and although the sun hadn't come out yet, it was at least almost seven o'clock.
I slept very comfortably this night, and when I woke up at this time, I felt full of energy and energy.
After a quick wash, I went out to the yard,
I found that Aunt Hua and Aunt Xiang had already clamped the tips of snails in the yard, and these snails were bought before, raised for a day or two, and only began to deal with them after spitting out the sediment.
Jiang Yi nodded, and hurriedly went out of the yard to buy fresh barrel bones.
When you come back, put the washed fresh snails into the pot with all the ingredients that have been prepared in a cloth bag, boil them over a fierce fire, and then simmer them slowly.
During this period, Aunt Hua and Aunt Xiang lit the fire, carried water, soaked rice noodles, cleaned up, and cleaned up the tables and chairs.
It's different to have a right-hand man, I'm not so tired of doing anything, Jiang Yi is busy chatting with the two of them.
"You guys arrived early in the morning? I woke up and found that a few catties of snails were almost ready. ”
Aunt Hua smiled; "It's been about half an hour."
"Then why didn't you wake me up?"
"Aunt Xiang said it's okay to let you sleep a little longer, you were too tired yesterday."
"You're tired, too."
Aunt Xiang said; "The owner is different from your young people, you need to sleep more, the older you are, the less time you sleep, and for an elderly person like us, it is enough to sleep for three or four hours a day."
Jiang Yi laughed; "Hahaha, the two aunts are not old, they are in the prime of life......"
The three of them chatted while busy working on their work, and when they saw that the time was almost up and the soup was ready, they opened the courtyard door, and there were guests in a short time.
However, there are not many guests in the morning, and Aunt Hua and Aunt Xiang can handle it, Jiang Yi turned around and planned to wake up her younger brother.
He used to get up very early to catch the car, much earlier than himself. Now I have been sick for more than half a month, and I am getting more and more pigs day by day.
If he doesn't wake up when he goes in, I'll wake him up myself. Walking into the room, she thought to herself.
The room was relatively dim, and when I walked to the bed, I suddenly saw that it was empty, and my heart was stunned.
Immediately I found a piece of paper on the table next to the bed, and I simply wrote a few words; Sister, brother is gone, take care.
These words are written crookedly, some big and some small, very ugly, but Jiang Yi burst into tears.
In previous lives, some parents sent their children to college, and the children who could be reunited in four or five months at most were reluctant.
What's more, it is such a young brother, who has to go to an unknown place, facing unknown things, not knowing when he can come back, or even whether he can come back, is a question of parting.
Even though Jiang Yi, who was often thousands of miles away in her previous life, was completely unfamiliar with the concept of separation, she was also so sad that she was worried.
I didn't expect him to say goodbye like this, a lot of parting advice and explanations haven't been said, she also prepared ten taels of silver, a few sets of good clothes and shoes, and planned to let her brother take them with her, but the clothes and shoes were not ready, and the silver was not given to him, so she left.
Two undercurrents suddenly rushed down uncontrollably in her eyes.
For the rest of the day, she was distracted, walking dead and had no idea what she was doing.
It wasn't until late in the evening when I was ready to call it a day.
Today's business is indeed much less than yesterday's, only four pots of soup are sold, about 190 bowls, almost more than 800 copper.
At this time, she realized that Erniang arrived in the morning, and she didn't disturb her, and she had been silently busy all day.
Everyone knew that she was sad because of her brother's departure, and she didn't even study Nengli, and practiced calligraphy for a day.
The next few days were busy and quiet.
The heat of the snail noodles slowly cooled down and returned to normal levels, and the average daily sales of about three pots of soup were made, and the net income was about 35 copper per day.
The income of the ox cart is about 150 copper per day, and the net income is about 100 copper.
There are also shops that are taken care of by their parents-in-law, and their purchases and uses are also taken in the money they earn, but they are not used excessively, and there are many of them will be handed over to Jiang Yi, about more than ten copper a day, and mosquito legs are also meat, so Jiang Yi will naturally accept them.
Her income increased, but so did her extra expenses, and first she renovated the yard, strengthened the fence, and painted lime inside and out.
Then two large pillars were erected in the middle of the courtyard, and beams and slabs were erected, and tiles were laid.
Two tables have also been added to the restaurant so that dine-in customers don't have to set up tables with strangers.
And added the cash register counter, and some simple and atmospheric decorations, and made a few pots of green plants on the table, so that the environment is better, a bit of a delicate shop.
Even so, the courtyard of seventy or eighty square meters still seemed empty.
She vacated a dozen square meters of space and opened a grocery store, which was taken care of by Erniang, selling some daily necessities, mainly dealing in local products purchased in the countryside, and the business was not good, and she could also create some income every day.
Next, separate the house from the yard, which is a place of rest, not mixed with the place of work.
Besides, Zhao Fuzi and Zhao Nengli want to study, and the guests outside are too noisy, which is not good for them.
And the house was also re-hardened and plastered, and the house felt completely new, and some simple furniture was added.
There were four rooms in the house, one room for Zhao Nengli's ancestors and grandsons, one room for Jiang Yi and Erniang, and another room for Bu Ru, who now often went to the town to spend the night.
There are also ox carts, Jiang Yi found that in addition to returning to Bujia Village, there are two days to go to other villages, and the road to the county seat is also very easy to walk.
She and Brother Da Ma went to investigate, and found that a new route could be opened, so she decided to expand the team, and Brother Da Ma and Chen Zhi were in charge.
There is also a sum of money to be spent here.
